Re: Seaside Bay - Permit 63-14
Heather,
The HOA has a meeting in March were we are going to vote on the HOA taking possession of the marsh lands
so the permit could remain as currently set up.
With that being the goal - we would still like to know for our meeting as well if the modification we are
considering is doable for the dock expansion.
Thank you for your help on this complicated issue!

Hi Scott,
I consulted with my supervisor to make sure I'm correctly advising you, and due to current circumstances- he agreed
that we would need to proceed as we discussed. Since the HOA does not appear to be the legitimate riparian property
owner for the project (and therefore doesn't have rights to develop under the permit as was authorized), if you and the
HOA don't agree to serve as joint permittees, we will need to void the permit. Should you and the HOA agree to
become joint permittees, upon notification of such agreement, we will amend the permit to add your name.
As for your proposed modification, if we must void the existing permit, you would then need to apply for a new major
permit for the revised plan.
Hope this helps clarify somewhat. If you have further questions, please just let me know.

Subject: Re: Seaside Bay - Permit 63-14
Hey Heather,
Based on your voicemail yesterday - I have advised the HOA of the following concerning the permit - 1)
NCDENR will rescind the permit if I and the HOA can not reach an agreement on the merging of the wetlands
and the boat ramp area and any other dock proposal would have to be separately permitted. 2) If we can reach
and agreement then the permit can remain as currently issued.

Based on this, can I get a letter from you confirming this position for our files.
Also - We are still interested in knowing the possibility of the change requested that I sent for the dock layout
which I know Debbie was working on but I have not heard from her so far.
Thanks for your help and clarification on this issue,
Scott Bullock

Hi Scott,
Last we spoke, we discussed the need for you and the HOA to serve as joint permittees, since the permit was issued as
a community docking facility for the HOA. Is this no longer the intent? Does Seaside Bay, LLC still have any ownership
of property or other interest? As for the docks within 15' setbacks- are you referring to the two docks adjacent to the
boat ramp that were constructed in or around 2013 under Permit #99-09 or have other docks been constructed
recently?
This does seem to be more complicated than our standard projects. Thanks for helping clarify the situation so we can
figure out how to move forward.
Hope you had a nice weekend,
Heather

Subject: Seaside Bay - Permit 63-14
Heather,
I have been reviewing the issue of the dock permit and it seems that the permit has requirements of set backs
from adjacent property lines of 15'. When 15' is not available a waiver can be issued if requested from the
adjacent owners or if the permit is being jointly requested.
Based on the permit drawing and the Brunswick Co GIS site it seems that not only are these set backs not
being enforced the docks are actually overlapping or touching the property lines and the floating docks extend
over 15' into my waterfront property. I need them to move these docks so my property is not obstructed.

Based on this I would assume the docks were permitted to the property owners and when the property was
sold the permits would have to be transferred to like property owners as co-permittees which would be me
and Seaside Bay, LLC as originally requested.
If I am not listed on the permits then the permit is in violation without a waiver from me or the permit is
required to be listed in mine and Seaside Bay, LLC's name.
Please let me know if I am missing something here but it seems our request has been correct the entire time
and no more action is required on our part except to receive the jointly issue permit.
Please advise as soon as possible so we may resolve this issue with developer and Seaside Bay.
Thanks,
Scott Bullock

Subject: from Glenda Kopchinsky RE permit 99-09 and 63-14
Heather: I spoke with you last week regarding permit 63-14 issued in the name of the Seaside Bay Homeowners
Association. You was kind enough to answer my questions and send me a copy of the field investigation report which
helped me outline a time line for permit 63-14. 1 do have a couple of more questions about what is written in the field
report specific to permit 99-09 and 63-14 would like to ask that you give me a call when you have a chance.
Thank you
